Upcoming Medical Conferences in Nijmegen

rTMS for depression, OCD and new developments: 2-day rTMS course is organized by neuroCare Group GmbH and will be held from Jun 13 - 14, 2019 at neuroCademy, Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands.
The target audience for this medical event is for clinicians, psychiatrists and psychologists who have basic knowledge of neuroscience and consider using rTMS treatment in their own practices. Also researchers wanting to use rTMS in their studies.
Conference Description:
The course is for academics and clinicians who want to use the technique of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with psychotherapy (e.g. cognitive behavioural therapy) for the treatment of Depression, OCD and other indications as well as for researchers who want to use rTMS in research-settings. Also more advanced topics such as the use of EEG and QEEG to predict and optimize rTMS treatment, other neuromodulation techniques (tDCS, tACS) and sleep problems and chronobiology will be covered. During this course there is ample time dedicated to hands-on training with different types of rTMS equipment, supervised by one of our experienced rTMS specialists.
The 2-day course will have a focus on:
• The use and theoretical background of rTMS in clinical practice
• The working mechanism of TMS and safety aspects
• The use of rTMS in the treatment of depression
• An overview of the use of rTMS in other disorders
• The use of EEG and QEEG along with rTMS for safety aspects, the prediction of treatment outcome and markers for responders/non-responders.
• Other neuromodulation techniques such as tDCS and tACS.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.

Neurofeedback in ADHD and insomnia: 4-day course is organized by neuroCare Group GmbH and will be held from Jun 18 - 21, 2019 at neuroCare Group Nijmegen - rTMS and neurofeedback, Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands.
Conference Description :
This 4-day neurofeedback training course is for academics, clinicians and researchers who are interested to learn about the application of neurofeedback in the treatment of ADHD, insomnia and other indications as well as how to validly apply neurofeedback in research settings. The course will further focus on the use of QEEG in personalizing neurofeedback treatment, learning theory and includes dedicated hands-on training on neurofeedback, interpretation of sleep diagnostics and actigraphy, and QEEG interpretation supervised by one of our experienced specialists.
This training course is based on the international 36-hours didactic neurofeedback blueprint from the The Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA, Board Certified in Neurofeedback).
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.

2nd Masterclass in Endoscopy in Gastrointestinal Oncology is organized by European School of Oncology (ESO) and will be held from Jan 31 - Feb 03, 2020 at Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands.
Description
The aim of this Masterclass is to provide an update of the role of endoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal neoplasia. The Masterclass is specifically addressed to junior specialists and each topic will be analysed in a systematic and propaedeutic way, from basic to the most complex and difficult procedures. The Masterclass will consist of a series of focused presentations, update lectures and video sessions. Presenters will be using case illustrative examples and high quality video throughout the programme.
The most recent advances in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy will be presented; technical devices will be critically analysed according to the data obtained from evidence-based results of the literature.
High level interaction between the faculty and the audience will be facilitated throughout the course and clinical case discussions in groups will be scheduled each day where the participants’ clinical cases will be discussed. The importance of the multidisciplinary approach to gastrointestinal cancers will be elaborated.
Together with gastroenterologists, interventional radiologists, surgeons and oncologists, participants will be actively involved both in the presentations and in the discussions.
The key aim of the course is to illustrate that endoscopy may offer its best potential particularly when it is part of a comprehensive clinical evaluation of the patient.
Learning Objectives
• Update on epidemiology of gastrointestinal cancers and precancerous conditions/lesions
• Appraise the role of endoscopy in several scenarios.
• Discuss cancer genetics and the role of endoscopy.
• Update on endoscopic diagnostic approaches and endotherapy in a multidisciplinary perspective.
• Update on technological innovations.
• Discuss indications and limits of endoscopy and methods to acquire competency in endoscopy.
• Competency in endoscopy but also in clinical research: how to prepare a research protocol
The MasterClass
• Is a 4-day residential, educational and practical event
• Presents full covering of premalignant lesions and malignancies of the gastrointestinal tract
